Another new international trailer for Thor: Ragnarok has been released online showcasing some new footage, this time from China. Indeed, the Chinese market is a big deal for Marvel Studios/Disney, as their films tend to do quite well there. Spider-Man: Homecoming scored a whopping $114 million in China alone and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 grossed $100 million. It’s a major market, and thus Chris Hemsworth himself introduces this trailer directly to Chinese audiences.
This looks to be the most visually exciting Marvel movie since the first Guardians of the Galaxy. Director Taika Waititi’s use of color is terrific, but it’s his approach to the visual effects that really make this thing pop. It looks like something you want to inject directly into your eyeballs, which is a very good/rare thing for a Marvel movie as their visual palettes tend to get sanded down to a very plain, staid look.
All of this to say, I cannot wait to see this movie, and this trailer makes it all the more enticing. Check out the new Thor: Ragnarok trailer below. The film also stars Cate Blanchett, Mark Ruffalo, Tom Hiddleston, Tessa Thompson, Jeff Goldblum, Karl Urban, Anthony Hopkins, and Idris Elba. Thor: Ragnarok opens in theaters on November 3rd.
